Lab Course: Zeolites and Clay Minerals

Lecturers: Iris Spieß, Christoph Vogt

Content:

Phase identification of layered silicates - Preparation, PXRD experiments and analysis
Zeolite synthesis and characterization with PXRD and other characterization methods

Competences:

- The students learn to apply PXRD methods to characterize layered silicate samples.
- The students learn to apply synthesis and characterization methods that are important in the field of zeolite science.

Assessment:

The results of the lab course will be documented in an ungraded lab report.

Exam Form:

Laborbericht

Literature:

Synthesis recipes and instructions for characterization will be distributed during the lab course
